TPC Racing Presents - Time Attack.

[Pigems]

@El_Beardo Sounds good, this is my best lap so far.

 

[Groundfish]

I shared my time and setup in game .
Replay is shared. This time the stock gearbox.

 

[NoStopN]

I'm still trying to figure out the line for T10/11 before I worry about that.

If I've read it correctly, it should be a late turn in, clip the apex at the cone on the right (if you have cones set up) & flat out to the left onto the astroturf.

OP updated.

Seems like a fun idea guys.

cool track / car combo.

I know nothing about posting... anything... from the game here, and probably never will. So putting up the stats n such is not gonna happen lol.

but maybe I’ll try some laps if I get bored, goodluck

I think you've been here long enough that if you want an official crack at the combo, we can teach you some things. Both in regards to your laps & posting results.

Aww shucks

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

I got down to a 1:00.8 using @Pigems setup, I didn't think I would be able to find the next half a second so bent a couple of the rules (the replay of the legal lap is saved).

Video of a beautifully quick lap, thumbnail is you in the wall...

...ah, that classic Pigems hotlap technique

 

[Pigems]

I’m gonna try @Groundfish ’s setup next time out, he’s got me beat by almost a full tenth as of now. Great lap man!

My suspension set up is very similar to his. So, I tried his diff settings.

I like it. A lot. Definitely suits my driving style more.

Sweet! That was actually the part I was most interested in trying, I love 5/10/5 for RWD, but I had no clue what to do with the front diff. I was actually trying to figure out with settings would turn off the most lol.

 

[El_Beardo]

Took a tenth off.

Then looked at the replay. Illegal. By about half a tyre's width. Balls.

 

[El_Beardo]

Down to a 0.460, with a 0.440 optimal.

@Groundfish, your diff set up is excellent.

While I've got you tagged, could you put your time in the form for me. Makes things nice and easy to track.

 

[Pigems]

I’m jumping on to try @Groundfish ’s diff settings now, fresh cup of coffee already made.

Edit: Down to 0.188 now with SeaBass’s diff settings, haven’t tried his suspension yet, but I did raise my ride height slightly on my set up.

 

[El_Beardo]

Happy with that. Probably another tenth or two for me to find through the week.

00.054?!

Also, your set up is a fair bit stiffer than mine. May have to give that a crack.

I really like this setup now, it’s stiff, but it still rotates pretty well, and with @Groundfish ’s diffs, you can get on the gas way earlier. Sub 1:00 can be done for sure, I don’t know if I’ll be able to do it, but someone can.

 

[Groundfish]

Sub 1 is doable. I’ll put my time in for you @El_Beardo...Looks like I will be 1.00.149.
Great lap @Pigems!

 

[Redneckchef]

Definitely going to rearrange to try that setup. Mine is starting to degrade as I move things about and now I have lost all track of what I was doing.

You're more than welcome to add more than one lap, mate.

I'm just making sure the form/sheet carry on working as they should, through the week.

 

[Redneckchef]

Ok, added a second time to the sheet. The setup @Pigems posted based on what @Groundfish started has really fixed my rear end. Stopped skating so much. Suspension wasn't super far off but the diff is massively different. Dropped from a 1:01.5 to 1:00.4!

Awesome

 

[The_Tullster]

If I'm not too tired after nations I'll give this another try. So far my experiments are still way off the mark, I think I've been going the wrong way on the front diff from comments here.

 

[El_Beardo]

@VulcanSpirit just realised you weren't on my tag list.

This something you might be interested in?

 

[Pigems]

@Oshawa-Joe May be interested as well.

Guess who else will be using @Pigems' setup when he gets back on track. 💡

Will look into it. 👍

Internet problems are making online racing a challenge right now, but this looks like a good alternative. I'll give it a shot tonight.

Is there an easy way to see the current leaderboard? (Maybe that appears after you enter your time in the Google form?)

Ooh, that's a good point. I was going to link the spreadsheet.

I'll get that sorted after work, tomorrow.

 

[nuthunmuch]

Spent a bit of time circulating Tsukuba. Best of 1:00.179

Edit: I might need to try again. I see the rules say 2 wheels on/inside the white line. Watching the replay I had 3 wheels inside the line for an instant, 4th wheel still touching the line.
